15 pcap_set_tstamp_type() sets the type of time stamp desired for packets
16 captured on the pcap descriptor to the type specified by tstamp_type.
17 It must be called on a pcap descriptor created by pcap_create() that
18 has not yet been activated by pcap_activate().
19 pcap_list_tstamp_types() will give a list of the time stamp types sup‐
20 ported by a given capture device. See pcap-tstamp(7) for a list of all
21 the time stamp types.
22
24 pcap_set_tstamp_type() returns 0 on success if the specified time stamp
25 type is expected to be supported by the capture device, PCAP_WARN‐
26 ING_TSTAMP_TYPE_NOTSUP if the specified time stamp type is not sup‐
27 ported by the capture device, PCAP_ERROR_ACTIVATED if called on a cap‐
28 ture handle that has been activated, and PCAP_ERROR_CANTSET_TSTAMP_TYPE
29 if the capture device doesn't support setting the time stamp type.
